FROM: Kip Padgett, City Manager
SUBJECT: FY 2015 Recommended Budget
DATE: May 1, 2014
CC: Angela Sheppard; Melody Marlowe; Denise Jordan
As I prepared the City for the FY 2015 budget process, it was important staff review the January retreat of the Governing Body where five major themes were the point of focus: Economic Development, Infrastructure Improvements, Internal Operations, Leisure Services and Quality of Life. As each departmental budget was presented and reviewed, these five themes were applied to ensure compliance with the vision of the Governing Body. The following sections will briefly describe how the budget addresses these issues.
Economic Development – Gainesville serves as the economic hub for north Georgia. Our medical, retail and industrial facilities draw countless visitors everyday growing our city to over 100,000 people during daytime hours. Also, our industrial parks and businesses employ thousands each day from the region. A part of our success is due to our partnerships with various organizations within Hall County. This budget seeks to continue those partnerships by allocating $136,500 to the Economic Development Council. Investment in a vital component of the economic backbone of a city is necessary to help small businesses succeed. This budget proposes to continue our commitment to the Manufacturing Development Center’s Business Incubator with Lanier Technical College and Hall County. A somewhat dormant economic generator has been awakened through the City, Hall County and Gainesville Hall ’96 by investing $150,000 in the Lake Lanier Olympic Venue. The same level of commitment has been recommended to continue this endeavor anticipating increased sales tax dollars and hotel/motel revenue generated by visitors and competitors to this facility.

Infrastructure Improvements – Due to our economic strength, the number of visitors to our city each day and the commerce traveling through our city from all over the north Georgia region, places a strain on our traffic network. The City, in conjunction with our regional transportation-planning agency, has completed a transportation plan for Gainesville. This plan is comprehensive in nature and calls for road improvements and new road locations over the next several years. To facilitate this process, $500,000 has been designated in the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) as a local match for state and federal dollars to implement some of the recommended projects. In the coming years, more significant funding sources will be required for the larger, more challenging projects. In addition to normal wear and tear, an aging storm water system and abnormal winter weather has expedited the deterioration of our roads and culverts. This budget continues to put forth in excess of $1 million to address the needs in repairing our storm water system and repaving our roads.
Internal Operations – During the past two years we have been able to provide cost of living adjustments (COLAs) to employees. Due to a strengthening financial picture, this budget recommends a return to the 5% merit increases that had to be discontinued in past years due to the economy. This pay for performance initiative will follow the same practice and schedule as in past years when pay for performance was in place. It is the hope that as our revenue continues to improve we can continue this practice in future budget years as well. Insurance is a major cost of any organization. The City has seen a significant increase in medical claims this year, as well as an increase in the cost of employer mandates enacted through the Affordable Healthcare Act. All of these factors have caused an increase in insurance costs. City staff has worked extremely hard to reduce the effects of these rising costs, allowing the city to absorb the additional claims costs and not pass it on to the employees for FY’15.
Leisure Services - The City’s award winning Parks and
Recreation Agency continues to improve the visitor experience through improvements to various parks throughout the City. Also, our Tourism Office is continually attracting new events to bring visitors in to Gainesville. The continued contribution by the City and County to the aforementioned Lake Lanier Olympic Venue is yet another park improvement for those interested in canoeing and kayaking. As our population continues to age, especially the baby boomers, our Community Service Center

continues to implement new programs to engage that segment of our population.
Quality of Life - An effort began last year to remove blight within the city to encourage home ownership. A coordinated effort between city departments and non- profit agencies has resulted in several abandoned properties being removed. Working with the Department of Community Affairs, the City has been able to provide down payment assistance and housing rehabilitation funds to bring other properties up to code and encourage home ownership. The Community Development Department’s budget continues this initiative through their funding request.
Attached for Mayor and Council review is the City Manager’s proposed FY 2015 budget. The budget contains a summary of revenues and expenditures for the General Fund and the Capital Improvements Program, as well as eighteen other funds. This balanced budget has been prepared and is being presented to the Governing Body in accordance with the City Charter, and with Chapter 2-3 of the Gainesville City Code. A tax increase is not recommended. In preparing the FY 2015 budget, many issues played a key role in its development. Most notably are the following:
Revenues: The city’s revenue portfolio continues to show some improvement in several areas. The total operating revenues show a decrease for the coming year mostly due to the loss of rental revenue from CCA for the jail property. Total Revenue and other sources are up overall by 1.9%
Property taxes: Property taxes are projected to increase due to adjustments to last year’s digest, new construction and reassessments. Budgeted property tax revenue is at a 95% collection rate as opposed to 93% in FY 14. This is due to an improving economy and more people paying their taxes on time. Property taxes account for 19% of the total revenue with only 33% coming from residential properties.
FY 2014 Fund Balance: A surplus in some revenue line items will permit us to purchase some necessary capital items as well as perform paving projects in the coming year. It is ideal to use surplus funds for these type activities since the funds are one-time funds and not meant to supplement the operating budget.
The General Fund budget is $30,328,583. While most departments submitted budgets that are in line with previous year requests, some necessitated an increase. The nineteen other funds remain close to FY 2014 levels or in line with projected revenues for each fund and can

be seen in the attached budget documents. However, a few departments and agencies merit discussion below.
Cemetery: The Cemetery budget is up by 40% due to the reassignment of laborers from the streets division. There is also a reduction in the streets division to account for the transfer in personnel.
Public Land and Buildings: This division is up by 18% because of the maintenance responsibilities for CCA’s portion of the jail, and assuming full year maintenance cost on the parking deck and administration building.
City Council: This increase is due to recognizing a full year of another council member salary and adjusting for attorney fees.
Agency Allocation: This increase was due to the city assuming its share of financial support for the Olympic Venue ($150,000).
Community Service Center (CSC): The CSC is mainly dependent upon the general fund for the required match to the various grants it receives. Sequestration and the sustainability of grant funding in general causes close review of these funds. Grant funding will make up 42% of the CSC budget.
Capital Improvement Program (CIP): The attached budget includes a summary of proposed capital projects for the coming fiscal year. Funding from the General Fund totals $3.1 million and includes a continued emphasis on road improvement projects, public safety and other identified capital needs. This year’s capital purchases will not utilize the GMA lease pool.
Public Utilities (PUD): The utility fund budget is decreasing overall by 1.0% for FY 2015.
Chattahoochee Golf Course (CGC): Although an enterprise fund, the golf course is still dependent on the general fund to assist in covering debt obligation for course renovations that occurred in 2007. It is the intent to keep any transfer below $200,000. However, the proposed transfer this year is up to $300,000 for the purchase of needed capital equipment and to refurbish the golf cart tires, batteries and make cosmetic repairs.
Moving into FY 2015 and beyond, it is important to be aware of concerns that may impact our budget:
Although changes to our benefits have reduced our Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) liability, this area needs continuous monitoring and an appropriate funding mechanism put in place.

Our debt service is funded through a dedicated millage rate. As property taxes have declined so has the revenue needed to adequately fund debt service in the long term. Bond payments on the Frances Meadows Center and Parking Deck are made out of these funds. The city also depends on this fund for its fleet replacement needs, through lease purchases. To keep this fund strong, the city is not engaging in any lease purchases for the coming fiscal year.
Jail – With the departure of CCA, the city must replace the revenue stream in order to make debt obligation payments for the property. There are enough funds in the debt service fund to cover those payments for calendar years 2014 and 2015. Afterwards the city will have to identify other funding sources to cover this gap.
Our financial health is directly related to controlled spending, internal controls and the prudent financial policy direction of the Council. These actions have assisted us in continuing to provide top-level municipal services to our residents and businesses. Our efforts have resulted in substantial economic investment within the city limits by a number of regional, national and international companies and more is expected. This budget was a true team effort and could not have been successfully put together without the efforts of the Department Directors, the Assistant City Manager, and in particular our Chief Financial Officer Melody Marlowe and Budget/Purchasing Manager Matt Hamby. I continue to be thankful to the Mayor and Council for the support and confidence they have shown in staff. If I can answer any questions, please feel free to contact me.

achieved accreditation from the Commission for Accreditation of Parks and Recreation Agencies.

DEBT SERVICE FUND
FUND DESCRIPTION:
The Debt Service Fund is used to account for the accumulation of resources and payment of general government long-term debt principal and
interest from governmental resources.
Entering into fiscal year 2015, the City of Gainesville's general obligation debt is projected to be $19,900,000:
$ 9,050,000
Georgia law provides that general obligation debt be no greater than 10% of the City's total assessed value. This 10%, minus general obligation
bonds outstanding is classified as the governments's legal debt margin. A computation of the City's legal debt margin follows:
Bonded debt per capita, based on an estimated population of 35,307 is $563
The City's debt related to capital leases is anticipated to reach $1,283,262 during fiscal year 2014. The City anticipates no new capital leases in
FY2015.

Fuel Flowage Fee has been greatly improved with the FBO (Fixed Base Operator) lease effective July 1, 1998 and with the addition of Lanier
Aviation self serve gas fuel sales. It was formerly assessed at one cent ($0.01) per gallon for the amount of fuel sold monthly by the FBO after
the first 10,000 gallons which was free of any fee. With the new FBO lease, the monthly fee has 4 tiers: The first 17,000 gallons delivered per
month is levied at $0.04 per gallon; from 17,001 to 21,000 gallons the fee is $0.06 per gallon; from 20,001 to 25,000 gallons, the fee is $0.08
per gallon; and any amount over 25,000 gallons is assessed at $0.10 per gallon. The fuel flowage for Lanier Aviation is $0.10 per gallon.

Service Fees are charged when service to a user is terminated for non-payment, and as a penalty for a returned check. This
revenue has been stable over the past three years.
Late Payment Penalties of 10% of the amount due are charged if payments reach the Customer Service & Billing Department after
the due date on the billing.
REVENUE SOURCES & ASSUMPTIONS
Water Revenue is the largest revenue source in this fund. The service area includes a large portion of Hall County. Rates are
different for inside City and outside City customers due to differing service costs. Estimates are based on current and historical
trends, with a projected 2.5% rate increase (on all metered water sales) to occur January 1st to facilitate payment for major capital
improvements.
Account Service Fees are the third largest revenue source in this fund. This fee is billed to each account on the system as a base fee
that recovers the cost to read the meter and generate a bill, regardless of consumption. This base fee was previously built into the
water and sewer charges, and was broken out separately as part of a rate restructuring to improve equity to customers. This
revenue category is very stable and increases steadily at the rate new customers tie onto the system.
Water Tapping Fees are levied to recoup the actual cost of tapping the water mains for new or additional users tapping onto an
existing water line. The projected revenue is based on historical trend review and analysis, coupled with construction start
projections.
Surcharges are charged to large industrial and commercial customers if their pollutant load is in excess of what is found in the
maximum residential waste effluent. Surcharge fees have been stable over the past few years. This is based on historical trends.
Sewer Revenue is the second largest revenue source in this fund, with the majority of the service area inside the City limits. This
revenue category has seen a slight decrease in consumption usage. Estimates are based on current and historical trends, with a
projected 1.25% rate increase to occur January 1st to facilitate payment for major capital improvements.
Sewer Tapping Fees are charged for a new customer to tap onto the City's Sanitary Sewer System. This charge is set to recover the
City's cost to install the actual tap to the City's sewer for new or expanded service. Revenue has drastically declined over the past
three years due to the drastic decline in the building industry and poor economy. The projection is based on historical trend
analysis and an environmental trend toward less reliance on septic tanks.
Interest Revenue is based on cash balances, the economy, and interest rates. A decrease in revenue is due to decrease in interest
rates due to a poor economy.
Water/Sewer Connection Fees are charged to enable the system to fund its expansion. These fees are based on the prorated cost
of providing service with each new tap to the system and vary depending on tap size. Projections are based on anticipated new
customer acquisition.
